Gallery 3: Pooch's Day Out on the Train

I decided to give our 300D a workout as I haven't used it for a while. The wife had our 5D Mk2.
A trip to the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway (preserved by a charitable trust) on a sunny but cold early Spring day!
If you get a chance to make a trip there yourself, it really is a grand day out ...and they'd welcome your custom in the current recession.
Here are our photos...
